yea a melding of Canaanite and Iberian, with the rulers (who are mostly Barcids) also worshipping deified forms of their ancestors, so Hamilcar, Hasdrubal etc.

Does Druidic also have the reincarnation tenet?

Also, how does the Gaelic, Gallic and Druidic faiths differ from one another? I think only the "God-king" Druidic was mentioned in the update.

Fyrnsidu is the Germanic paganism that the Angles and Saxons and them lot took to Britain, and eventually died out with their conversions to Christianity. In this world they brought it south with them, instead, so we'll see if it survives or collapses to the more organised religions. Mechanically they look like this:



The Gaelic and Gallic and Druidic faiths basically all stem from Celtic paganism, but the centuries will have given rise to some differences between them. This is what they look like in-game:

yep, so most Christian holy sites are in the middle east, Druidism is in various British provinces, Cultus Deorum is concentrated in northern Europe (plus some place called Rome), etc

Stronger states forming earlier due to stronger than OTL trading links to north africa because of the strong and stable Numidia and Carthage?

Yeah do this kind of thing. Just a bunch of Mansa Musas with direct trade-contact with Carthage. Maybe their own golden age area with a couple strong united Republics with Carthaginian influences. Also, they have elephants in that area as well...

West Africa get's a dark age from their ill-fated attempts to tame Bush Elephants. Their lands are in ruins.

Also looking at the map Sibera and East Tibet area are in a pretty The Shattering (available for download on the Steam Workshop) as well. Siberia would be easy as they are just a bunch of groups that have had to deal directly with getting beat on by the Huns, and may really hate them for it. Not sure about East Tibet area, maybe a little bit of some china stuff?

Edit: also Horn of Africa. Looking at the last update of Imperator, Axum had a bunch of it, so probably just give them lots of the area.

The point of divergence is that someone figured out how, of course! Probably because they crossbred with the surviving North African elephants :eng101:
